Client Zoom meeting scam - close call

Client Zoom meeting scam - close call

Got an email yesterday from somebody saying they wanted to do a Zoom meeting to find out more about my inspection process, blah blah blah. Didn't want to do a phone call. They sent a "zoom" link and it was some b.s. unsecured link to a .es domain. I thought huh, that's weird, googled the URL and it turns out to be a known malicious phishing attempt.

They almost got me too. I had my alarm set for this Zoom call, clicked on the link and Google warned me so it saved my hide.

I responded to the email this morning and it is no longer active. About as red a flag as it gets. So BE WARNED - They're targeting home inspectors and probably getting a few is my guess.

6 sections in IRC Fuel Gas (Ch 24) entitled, "General"

They cleaned up Ch 3 in the 2024 IRC. I hope that one day they will clean up the Fuel Gas chapter. I am pretty good about finding what I need using the table of contents online but damn, six sections named, "General"?

Home inspection find of the week: Frog took a leap of faith and landed in wet cement?

This was full on indented into the slab but I can't figure out why there are no front legs. New condos right here in town.

Home inspection find of the week: A little support would be nice.

A lot of Austin construction is going on just outside the peripherals and this is very typical of what I'm seeing these days.
